Answer these questions as best you can. You will have a chance to revisit your answers after the activity. You are driving down the highway and a bug splatters on your windshield. Which is greater: the force of the bug on the windshield or the force of the windshield on the bug? Hold a rubber band between your right and left hands. Pull with your left hand. Does your right hand experience a force? Does your right hand apply a force to the rubber band? What direction is that force compared to the force applied by the left hand? Pull harder with your left hand. Does this change any force applied by the right hand? How is the force of your left hand, transmitted by the rubber band, related to the force applied by your right hand? Write a rule, in words, for the force relationship.
